I could give a shi't less about aggression, its just that the new album is shi't, toxicity gets old quick, and there are too many sleepers on steal this album. but I still enjoy chick'n' stu.

Well that's all personal opinion....but care to explain WHY you think Mesmerize sucks? I've heard people saying things like "it's annoying" and "there's too many pop hooks" and other silly things like that, what's your view?

The best songs in the whole cd for me are:
Cigaro
Question!
violent pornography
sad statue

In order

I almost wanna relate these guys to a new age Rage Against the Machine

my favorite songs in order on the new album are:

Radio/Video
Violent Pornography
Sad Statue
Cigaro
Old School Hollywood
This Cocaine Makes me Feel Like I'm on This Song
B.Y.O.B. (gets repititive)

[QUOTE=Salivation]I almost wanna relate these guys to a new age Rage Against the Machine[/QUOTE]
I wouldn't say that because they don't really rap in their songs, and Daron isn't as good as Tom Morello.

RATM>SOAD

Uhhhhhhhhhhhh........................
 

[COLOR=orange][CENTER]Dude SOAD is my favorite band. When i get the money im buyin theyre new CD! i can wait. i need it and hypnotize when i comes out.i have all their others :thumb: :thumb: .

And im gonna have to disagree with you Metal_Head_617 i like daron better. actually theyre about equal but i like darons style better.[/CENTER][/COLOR]

No it isn't. Dumbass.

also, I dont like it, it is my opinion, and if you like it, that is fine, I like the band, just not this cd, just like I like metallica, but not st. anger, then again so does everyone, thats adifferent story entirely.

People say these are the new ratm I dont believe so what so ever dont diss ratm's legacy same goes to s.o.a.d they are too different from each other.

[QUOTE=NoHero9]I could give a shi't less about aggression, its just that the new album is shi't[/QUOTE]

No it's not. The only thing better in previous albums than mesmerize is agression. They have evolved so much musically and vocally. Excluding Chop Suey from all of this cause that song still kicks as[COLOR=White]s[/COLOR] the most.

I agree entirely even though Morello is defiantely overated

I liked St. Anger just not as much as the rest of there albums

[QUOTE=Salivation]I almost wanna relate these guys to a new age Rage Against the Machine[/QUOTE]
IMO that would be a very silly thing to do

i just read this months total guitar, has Daron on the front. I didn't know he played drums too, and apparantly wrote all but 3 of Chavos bass parts.

[QUOTE=MXican]I agree entirely even though Morello is defiantely overated[/QUOTE]
He is overrated, yes, but then so are tons of other guitarists out there.

How can you say that. I think you need to wake up from that dream wolrd your living in. Listen to "Take The Power Back" by RATM or "Doesn't Remind me of Anything" by Audioslave. Then listen to some Malakian solo and then tell me who's better.

Doesnt Tom just rub the fretboard and call it a solo?
:lol:


Darons solo's rule, I love the Núguns banjo solo :thumb:

Daron has good, simple solos. They aren't mindblowing or anything close to it, but they do sound good and fit the song. Daron isn't exactly the greatest guitarist in the world, but he does write some pretty good riffs, and goodsongs in general, and that to me is much more important than a crazy shredding solo.

He did in Bulls on Parade, but that's probably his easiest solo. If you really want to see what he is capable of listen to "Township Rebellion".

hmmm... the solo in Psycho blows my mind every time... you're right though, he isnt the greatest guitarist, but he is one hell of guitarist for the amount he contributes to the band with his guitar AND vocals, which in my opinion totally makes the band.

I think I'm the only one who hates Daron's vocals...

His riffs are unbelievably fun to play on guitar, but his voice is SOOO irritating.

You're definately not the only one, that's one of the biggest complaints from people who don't like Me[B]z[/B]merize. He does have a high-pitched voice at times, and I could see how one would find it annoying. I personally think he sounds better than the singers of most of these new pop-punk bands on MTV, which is very sad indeed. That Newfound Glory guy is the worst singer ever, i'd be embarrassed to have a voice like that. But yeah anyways, Daron's high-pitched voice works with Serj's deep voice very well IMO. Daron seems to know his limits on vocals and doesn't overdo it(unless it's on purpose like in Old School Hollywood).

Edit: Happy zero?

ive seen other people who hate darons voice. i like it personally. i think it can sound good in a beautiful way and a freakin out wtf way.and about darons solos, u gotta give him some credit on solos like soil, science, psycho, marmalade, metro, and peephole has a cool solo in it also. they may not be the hardest things to play, but imo i like his solos more than toms any day.(no offense to tom or tom lovers)

and something i need to complain about.. NOBODY SPELLS meZmerize correctly. .. its a Z not an S.. ive already mentioned this like more than once in this thread...

fans..pff..

You've already (somewhat) clearly made that statement.

Your access to a computer must mean that yesterday did not affect you in any way, except for that freak-out, of course.

Im not a Nazi. I looooooooove SOAD, but I love RATM more. Can't I speak my opinion?

P.S. I think that Psyco solo is amazing, I think Tom Morello is better.

Doesn't sound like an opinion to me :)

SYSTEM OF A DOWN!!!!!!!!!!
Great Band! I like them!!! :smoke: :smoke: :smoke: :p

bbbbrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!ggggggggggggrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!vvvvvvvvvvrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

My only complaints with Mezmerize:

1) Some of the new songs lack emotion in comparison to previous efforts. The Cocaine one in particular just sounds like Serj half-assing and just talking weird. Not that I have a problem with him talking weird, but he's usually much better at it, if that makes sense.
2) Some of the lyrics are way too simple and repetitive. You mean to tell me Daron seriously couldn't come up with a 2nd, different verse of lyrics to Radio/Video? It really wouldn't seem that difficult. Not a big deal I know, but it's basically listening to the same exact thing twice in a row.
3) Everyone is saying this I know....but they recorded over 30 songs for the 2 albums, and it only looks like they're going to release maybe 23ish, and they're still charging for a double album when it will barely be more minutes than a normal album. That's stupid.
4) That's all I can think of for now.

Anyone agree/disagree with any of that?

Agreed.

Byob!!!
Question!!
Lost in Hollywood!
Cigaro!

These songs are very good!!!

Why do they always send the poor!!!!!!!!!! :evil: :smash:

i was very disappointed in their latest album mesmerise aswell,

i think their time is done, self-titled and toxicity probably their best.

darrens voice is terrible aswell. in "Radio Video" they do like a duet lol
